JOIN UNICEF FOR THE 2025 CALGARY GLOW FOR GOOD GALA!

UNICEF Canada’s 33rd Annual Glow for Good Gala will take place on October 4, 2025, bringing the Calgary community together to support the world’s children.

Join us for an unforgettable evening at the Glow for Good Gala, where you’ll indulge in a delicious four-course dinner, bid on extraordinary auction items, and enjoy captivating entertainment. As UNICEF Canada’s premier fundraising event, the Gala highlights the vital work of UNICEF and the transformative impact of your support.

Children today face unprecedented challenges that threaten decades of progress in their rights and well-being, making UNICEF’s global leadership more vital than ever. Operating in over 190 countries and territories, UNICEF delivers essential services - healthcare, nutrition, vaccines, education, and protection - especially in conflict zones, disaster areas, and remote communities. 

The support of the Calgary community is critical to sustaining these life-changing programs, and participation in the Glow for Good Gala directly helps ensure children worldwide have the opportunity to thrive and reach their full potential.
